101 Opening Day of Modern = My Biggest Buck
« on: October 21, 2013, 12:15:01 PM »
After tons of scouting and setup this bad boy wandered in about 745 opening morning, mine was the 4th shot of the morning and he was done before he hit the ground.  19 3/4" spread on the rack which was very heavy and bladed, also he has great eye guards.  He weighed 185 gutted and hung.  This by far out did my previous biggest which was a 3 pt. blacktail.  Sorry for the briefness of the story but this is my 3rd attempt at posting this and got tired of typing the same thing over and over.  hahaha.  I'll probably add more details of it later.

 :yeah:  I named him Scum bag due to a infected wound on his cheek and another puss pocket on his right shoulder, they're spread out just about enough where a nice buck would have gored him.  He had another open wound on his chest, the base of his horns were all packed with tree bark which I heard him rubbing down below me before he walked in.  I don't think he would have made it through the winter.

Any recommendations on a taxidermist in the Tacoma/Lakewood area?  I'm hearing good things about Nature's Way.  Thanks!
